为自定义BaseAdapter实现SearchView的NullPointer异常

Question

I have a listview of installed apps with a custom baseadapter class.

I am attempting to add the searchview function when I press the search icon so an edittext pops up to filter which apps I want to search for.

I am aiming for something like this:

I keep on producing a nullpointer exception for my searchview; however, I believe my xml and java implementation is correct.

I have done much research on the subject and still no luck.

NullPointer Exception While Doing Search Feature for ListView With BaseAdapter

How to add a SearchWidget to the ActionBar?

Android SearchView Filter ListView

No matter what I do I produce a nullpointer exception in some way or another.

This is where it is produced.

SearchView searchView; //this is what is null. This is in my blockactivity fragment class.



    searchView.setSearchableInfo(searchManager.getSearchableInfo(getComponentName()));

Here is my full baseadapter class:

      tools:context=".BlockActivity" >

      android:title="@string/search"
      android:orderInCategory="100"
      android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_search"
      app:showAsAction="always|collapseActionView"
      android:actionViewClass="android.widget.SearchView"
      android:actionLayout="@layout/layout_search"
    />
</menu>

And here is my layout search:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<EditText xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"

    android:inputType="text"
    android:textColor="@android:color/white"
    android:textCursorDrawable="@android:color/white" />

Please let me know if I can clarify anything. Had to include all this code for proper context. I am just trying to get my listview search filter working properly for my baseadapter listview but the nullpointer exception gets in my way persistently.

Now I am getting a null pointer exception here:

Process: com.spicycurryman.getdisciplined10.app.dev, PID: 1453
    java.lang.NullPointerException
            at com.spicycurryman.getdisciplined10.app.BlockActivity$2.onQueryTextChange(BlockActivity.java:128)



public boolean onQueryTextSubmit(String query) {
                if (!isLoading()) {
                    mAppAdapter.getFilter().filter(query);  //over here
                }
                return true;
            }

Does anything know how to properly define mAppAdapter?

Answer 1

Your problem:

you are using ActionBarActivity which is from support library but you use searchview that dose not from that library.

Solution:

 <menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
      xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
      xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
      tools:context=".BlockActivity" >

<item android:id="@+id/action_search"
      android:title="@string/search"
      android:orderInCategory="100"
      android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_search"
      app:showAsAction="always|collapseActionView"
      app:actionViewClass="android.support.v7.widget.SearchView"
      android:actionLayout="@layout/layout_search"
    />
</menu>

and also change import android.widget.SearchView; to import android.support.v7.widget.SearchView; . fix all import.
